As a first time home buyer I was very nervous and skeptical of realitors. My mind was quickly at ease after meeting with Andrew. I always felt like he had our best interest in mind. I didn't have to worry that he would sell us on a house just because of the price. Though out the whole process he kept us informed and was quick to respond to my questions. Since worrying comes natural to me, Andrew seemed to be one step ahead and could calm my nerves on the spot. I never heard " umm, I'll get back to you on that." Overall, my experience finding our first home was positive and informational. I was kept in the loop and was never pressured into buying because of the price. I highly recommend Andrew Iremonger. He knows the market and this business extremely well.

Andrew worked with us while we were still stationed overseas. He took time to thoroughly video each home for us. We received detailed videos of inside and outside the homes and walked through them as if he was personally buying them. He kept us informed, gave us great advice and in the end found us our perfect home

Andrew Iremonger, Thank you for all the help you provided in my search for a new home in Fort Walton Beach. Moving here and finding the right home from out of state was a challenge but you made the transition very smooth. You went above and beyond in helping me with my search. Your communication skills were superb. Your living in the area of my search enhanced the ability to find the perfect home for me. Closing was on time and went very smoothly. I am so grateful for all you help and patience. You are the epitome of a five star Realitor! With Much Respect, T. Hunter.

Kristen Weller is a great realtor! We absolutely loved working with her. My fiance and I were first time home-buyers and Kristen made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. She is extremely responsive, clarifying any questions or concerns we might have. She knew the area very well and was helpful in deciding which location we preferred most. She was personable since day one which really made approaching her effortless. We genuinely trusted her this whole time and could depend on her to be knowledgeable and show us current homes. We valued her opinions and thoughts, understanding her dedication to finding us our dream home. She was always available to act quickly if need be. Furthermore, the entire Emerald Group was great in working as a team to help us find and buy our new home! If for some reason Kristen was unavailable, someone at the Emerald Group was around to answer any questions or even help write up a contract. Kristen and Emerald Group really helped make this experience fun and exciting the whole time! We can't say enough good things.

Andrew was awesome. He previewed my home and gave me a good idea of what I should ask for it. He had multiple open houses to showcase my home. Andrew's communication was top notch he would response to emails, text messages and phone calls in a timely manner with the answers or just a phone call to let you know he was working. Overall if I move back to FL Andrew will be my number one choice to sell me a home and represent me again in the buying or selling process.

If I had to do the home buying process all over again I would without a doubt choose Andrew again. He was so helpful and had such knowledge about the whole process! Any time I had a question he answered it in a very timely manner. He made my first time home buying experience one I will never forget!

Andrew was our selling agent and he is very easy to get along with and he explains the home sale process well. He is an agent with a top notch company and he keeps his clients informed. Our home was listed with maximum exposure on the internet which is a necessity these days. We were fortunate to have him going to bat for us as the buyer's agent was not meeting deadlines or getting things done. Andrew kept the transaction together and we actually closed early. Closing was a relaxing experience at Andrew's Destin office.

Andrew and his team went far above and beyond during the selling of one home and purchase of another. They were always on top of any issues and represented my wife and I 1000%! They got us into our dream home despite last minute changes beyond their control. I would HIGHLY recommend these guys...and have on several occasions. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could.

I had a great experience with Emerald Group and Andrew Iremonger. My home was on the market only 49 days and we got an offer very near my asking price. Andrew successfully leverages technology to keep me informed. I live a few states over and was kept in the loop at all times. He even went the extra mile for me when I had a utility problem. He stopped by the house several times just to help me trouble shoot and get the problem fixed. He and his team made sure all the "i's" were dotted and "Ts" crossed for closing so there were absolutely no hiccups in that process. As an Air Force Veteran, Andrew knows the local community and market. I felt comfortable at all times with Emerald Group. I give Andrew and his team with my highest recommendation.

My wife and I recently bought our first home. After recommendations from a few different people, we decided to go with Andrew Iremonger. Andrew was everything you would want in a realtor, from not being pushy to eliminating the stress that one would expect when buying a home. With this being our first home, we were very unfamiliar with the process and Andrew was there every step of the way. It didn't matter if it was day, night, weekends, whenever! Andrew was always there to guide us in the right direction. I would recommend Andrew Iremonger to anybody looking to buy a home (especially first time homebuyers who may lack the general knowledge and steps like myself), you will not be disappointed!

We contacted Andrew to list our townhouse for sale in Fort Walton Beach based on the "Homes for Heroes" program and we were happy with our decision.
Our first request was for Andrew to critique the property and advise us on what repairs and improvements he would recommend to enhance the quick sale of our property. Without a commitment from us to list with him, Andrew came over and not only made multiple candid observations and recommendations, but he then followed up by giving us a written recap.
From that point on Andrew was consistently responsive to all of our inquiries, typically responding within hours of our text messages.
My wife and I live in Iowa and spent two weeks onsite performing repairs and maintenance. After we were done, Andrew again visited the townhouse to have us sign the listing paperwork and to do a final review of the work we had done and to assess what, in his opinion, still needed to be done.
After we traveled back to Iowa, Andrew served as our "boots on the ground". When we had a valid offer, the property inspection revealed a few fairly minor repairs that needed to be made. Understanding that we were 1,050 miles away, Andrew voluntarily accepted responsibility for managing those remaining chores to clear the inspection report on our behalf. This was a huge relief for us and paved the way for a successful close.
I would highly recommend Andrew for his honesty, professionalism and exemplary customer orientation.

Kristen was a wonderful help to us. She quickly and thoroughly answered all our questions. She is upbeat and has a great personality. Super easy to work with. Excellent at communications. Every question we had, and we had many, was answered in a timely fashion. She was very energetic and did not get frustrated with us even though we were kinda picky in what we were looking for. She is super patient and did not mind looking at multiple places and videoing them for us. She was super patient and overall a joy to work with.

Emerald Group and Andrew in particular is the very best realtor I’ve ever dealt with. He was patient and understanding. It took 4 years from the time we met him until we moved in to our dream home and he was a pleasure to work with thrughout the entire process. His knowledge of the local area proved invaluable. That fact that he’s a really funny guy and someone we could instantly relate to made the process much less stressful. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!

I am an out of town buyer that is very satisfied with the level of responsiveness, knowledge, follow thru and effectiveness that Emerald Group displayed with the purchase of my property.
Andrew Iremonger and his team went out of their way to make this transaction smooth and on time.
I couldn't have asked for a better team of professionals from the first step until closing. Andrew listened to my list of requirements and researched for a property that met those requirements. He was always courteous, patient and accommodating considering the time constrains. I am very grateful to have found such a great team!
I am highly recommending ERA Emerald Group for Real Estate businesses.

The Emerald Group provided me exceptional service and went above and beyond during my search for a home. I'm military and moved to the area on short notice and didn't have much time to look around for the few days I came to visit ahead of my move. I contacted many agents but went with this one because theyre prior military and Andrew at Emerald Group drove me around the FWB, Niceville, Shalimar, and Destin area viewing homes all day on the weekend and never acted like I was an inconvenience. Even after I left town to return to my old duty station, Andrew and his group continued to help me search and even sent online videos of home tours that he did. Anytime I had questions, at all hours of day and night, Andrew was very responsive. I highly recommend this realty group if you're in the market to help buy. They were never pushy but offered advice when requested and I never felt they were trying to hurry a purchase. Home buying is nerve-racking but Andrew and his team did make it a much more enjoyable process than I had imagined it would be.

AJ is very knowledgeable and has helped me countless times in hypothetical situations that are crucial to my current living and real estate investing status. She almost runs numbers and what if situations off the top of her head and is my go-to person with any questions or situations I find my self in. I would highly recommend her and can’t wait to buy with her negotiating on my behalf

What a team! I can't say "thank you" enough to the ERA Emerald Group for their expertise and devotion. My initial home-buying experience with a different realtor left me emotionally exhausted with the home-buying process. Andrew, Monica, and Stephanie created a smooth, stress-less situation for me. Within a few days of working with Andrew, I found the home I absolutely love located in a fantastic community. Please don't miss out on working with this incredibly talented group of people!

Andrew went above and beyond with my husband and I. He listed our house and took great care of us from start to finish! We ended up being able to sell it for full asking price. Here is the kicker... not only did he sell our house in our last location he also made sure we got hooked up with another Keller Williams realtor in our new distant location and we ended up buying our forever home. To this day we continue to keep in touch and have become good friends. How many realtors can you say that about? I totally recommend this guy you won't regret it!

Andrew is a true pleasure to work with! He always made time to take us to however many houses we wanted to see, at whatever random time (night shift workers here!) He did an excellent job making sure that we got the home that we wanted, and did not settle for one that would not suit our needs. We would definitely recommend him!

I worked with Andrew while purchasing my house in Crestview and he was great! After actually viewing the home and getting my offerror accepted I had to go through the rest of process from North Carolina. Andrew kept me in the loop with status updates and was always quick to answer any of my questions. I would highly recommend the Emerald Group to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home!

You will not find an agent that cares more about finding the right home for her clients. What is best for you and your family is always her top priority. Highly recommend!
